I've been dying to find a way to fill my numbers with holo glitter. Do you think there's a way to achieve that with this technique? It has to be super runny to fill the numbers but it can't be thick like resin, otherwise you lose the sunken numbers. I've been scratching my head for over a year on how to achieve this... the only way that's sort of worked is by getting those cheesy glitter glue sticks you can get at craft stores. I would literally spread that on a shop towel and smear the dice face in circles until the cavity picks up most of the sticky glitter but none of the actual liquid glue(soaked by the towel). Then you carefully wash the face with alcohol & q-tip... but by god it's a messy process, takes forever and you lose some of the glitter over time as the glue dries out. Thoughts?

Hi, I just found this video and had a suggestion from a different art form. I think instead of trying to clean the mica powders in a coffee filter, you might do a series of washes, where you mix the powder with a much larger quantity of water in a large container until incorporated, let the majority of the mica settle, and then pour off the colored wash water. I do it with transparent vitreous enamels (powdered glass) probably 4-5 times until the water runs clear to filter out parts of the powder that are too fine, because those fines will cause the final result to be cloudy and lacking in clarity. I wonder if it would work the same for your mica powders. Sounds like you found some solutions that worked for you, but I thought the suggestion might be helpful (and have a little less waste end up in your filters) if you wanted to work on that little bit of cloudiness and color bleed. I love your work.

Oh my gosh-very worthwhile endeavor, *please* do a follow-up. The whole “alcohol without the lack of surface tension” problem is quite tricky. I did some very ‘Chemistry for Dummies’-level research and I think you should try two things: 1. Alcohol with [some amount] of electrolytes added. Perhaps the powders people buy to put in their drinks would work(?) 2. Ethylene glycol (yes, as in old-timey antifreeze) instead of alcohol; it’s still in the alcohol family, but it’s much more viscous. The toxicity might be a concern, though... Viable to try, someday, you think?

I've done a bit of research into this researching MSDSs and reading a bunch of recipes for inks and paints. While I still haven't nailed the formula exactly where I want it, it seems that a few liquid glitter additives are a balance of pigment (mica powder), 90-99% alcohol, and a Gloss Paint Medium (possibly a varnish would work better, haven't tested), the latter will thicken the mix just enough to keep the glitter suspended for a slightly longer working time and might be negligible in resin (tests inconclusive, but the medium *seems* to have a tiny bit less settled glitter at the bottom... could be me mixing poorly/inconsistently?). Maybe metallic model paints could also work if you want the extra pigments from the paint in there? Thanks for this video, though! I was pulling out my hair trying to get a cleaer mix and that washing technique is going to be a life-saver. Tip: Use a square container with the round sifter/strainer so the evaporated water vents out the corners.

I don't know if somebody already told you or if you noticed it yourself but Brea Reese just renamed their old "Silver Glitter Additive" to "Liquid Iridescent Glitter Additive" because they added "Gold/Silver Liquid Metal" to their range. Oh and you don't have to buy big bundles of it. They are sold by the small bottle.

Awesome experiment! I was wondering.... If you would let "your liquid glitter" sit overnight in their little bottles and then just carefully change the alcohol in them the next day without shaking them they might get cleaner?
@Rybonator3 жыл бұрын
That might be a good thing to try. I can take a pipette and drain the stuff from the red/blue one and see if it gets even better :) Good idea!

They are selling it at hobby lobby on the hobby lobby website an it's on Amazon for individual sale.... It's also cheaper at the craft store than on Amazon. Just thought I would throw a heads up to ya in case you are still having issues getting it. And since it's a liquid glitter for inks, I'm guessing it is a type of an additive that isn't alcohol or water but maybe a combo of the 2 I could be wrong

Try acrylic medium. Also your washing process only removes micro particles, gently pipet or poor the colored alcohol out of your mica mixes, add more alcohol, shake, let settle and repeat until satisfied.

i have absolutely no idea how it would behave in resin BUT with makeup there's a liquid mixer that people use with eye shadows or other other power material to make liquid liner, that could maybe make a difference in behavior if you wanted to do more experiments...also don't you have puck molds? wouldn't those work really well for something like this? great video though!!

I totally do! I should have tried that. I'm kind of dumb here lol. I should try the makeup material as well! I'll search around

Suggestion: use glycerin, the same stuff people use to make vape juice. Request: use your alcohol glitter to make sparkly petri dish dice.

Maybe they added a detergent surfactant? That'll increase the surface tension a bit.

I'm thinking it would have been a good idea to do more than one wash with the powders in order to remove as many impurities as possible. It also might have been a good idea use filters that allow some slightly larger impurities to go through as well so that you really get as much of the glitter and pigment as clean as possible.

Maybe some different grade coffee filters would work?

A couple things, you could try and air compressor and a blast of air to free the resin from them solo cups but I think it would be cool if you smashed them and put them into dice, maybe it could look like shared

My husband and I were watching this, and he believes that you might have luck using glycerin, mineral oil, or a mix of glycerin and alcohol. Ink them either silver or bright brass.
